cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Pathological Study of Renal Lesions in the Condemned Bovine Kidneys in Ziaran Slaughter-house

Long-range correlations in the electric signals that precede rupture.

The Smoluchowski-Chapman-Kolmogorov functional equation is applied to the electric signals that precede rupture. The results suggest a non-Markovian character of the analyzed data. The rescaled range Hurst and detrended fluctuation analyses, as well as that related with the "mean distance a walker spanned," lead to power-law exponents, which are consistent with the existence of long-range corre...

Update on Genetic Conditions Affecting the Skin and the Kidneys

Genetic conditions affecting the skin and kidney are clinically and genetically heterogeneous, and target molecular components present in both organs. The molecular pathology involves defects of cell-matrix adhesion, metabolic or signaling pathways, as well as tumor suppressor genes. This article gives a clinically oriented overview of this group of disorders, highlighting entities which have b...

Natural history of age-related retinal lesions that precede AMD in mice fed high or low glycemic index diets.

PURPOSE Epidemiologic data indicate that people who consume low glycemic index (GI) diets are at reduced risk for the onset and progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The authors sought corroboration of this observation in an animal model. METHODS Five- and 16-month-old C57BL/6 mice were fed high or low GI diets until they were 17 and 23.5 months of age, respectively. Retinal ...
